City had a stone wall penalty turned down late last week v Burnley. They aren't getting all the decisions. The sending off this week made no difference, whoever was sent off City would beat a team like that with 10 men 99 times out of a 100. City will drop more points. Arsenal and possibly even United are bigger concerns because we still have to play them and they are in form.
I do agree - this could if it hadn't already - turn into 3 or 4 horse race. Again for the 100th time - our primary problems are self inflicted - thanks to Jose. Don't get that BS about our replacements not good enough. Remy has got few important goals just like Ba did last year. Remy can and should be played more often. Few times this year, it was like watching Arsene or Rafa at work!
Law of averages or FA catching up to City finally. Palace's Handball not given & offside goal stood. 2-1 loss at Palace. Now we are 90% certain for the title. Boy I am glad I was wrong.
If we win tomorrow, we will need just 2 wins & 2 draws from the remaining 7 games to win the title. Tomorrow is going to be very crucial. Would love a Manure win. City is still going to finish above Goons & Manures. Savage writes through his BBC column, Manures are in mighty form - thanks to very convincing wins over Spuds( who lost to villa) & Pool ( Gerrard gifted and still they limped to final whistle). Pundit = Savage!
Is 2 points from the next 2 better than 3 points? 3 points would mean a loss to one of the chasing 2, which could let them in. Where as 2 draws should be enough to keep them at arms length with 4/5 games to go. Here's hoping for 4-6!
I'd take beating United and drawing at Arsenal. As I think united will turn Arsenal over at home. That would give us 4, United 3 and Arsenal 1 from the mini games between us.

I am going for 6,3,0 for us , manures & goons from those mini games. But anything less than 4 for us will give Manures a huge boost.
With the current points difference six weeks ago i would have been optomistic, now i am just hoping for second.
On paper we should get 6 pts from these mini games, just like on paper we should walk the league. But we having no strikers, Fab & Matic facing possible suspensions, you getting all City's decisions & some - I won't rule you out for next 2 weeks atleast. Mini games can very well finish 6,1,1 to you, us & goons. I would take 2,2,2 for all of us today. That would most likely seal the title for us.
I thought it was until the end of the season? When you get your 5th yellow in a season you get a one match ban? Is that not right? Or does it expire after a certain amount of games?
Expired after QPR game. If Matic or Fab had been booked they would have got 2 match suspensions which would have been horrible timing. All resets now though
